The NFL Thread - Root for your favorite team (or laugh at the Steelers, whichever's easier)

[Elwood P. Dowd]

At this point, would love to see Lions out of the NFC and either Texans or Jags out of the AFC in the Super Bowl. Won't happen, I know, but a fella can dream.

What I absolutely do NOT want is the match-up CBS is probably praying for: Chiefs-Eagles. I think I've seen enough of Taylor Swift for three lifetimes. And I'm rapidly reaching my tolerance for the Kelce brothers. Will also be interesting to watch if we see some heavy duty refball to make things flow this way. Would not shock me one bit. TBF I suppose both are as likely as not to go legitimately. I just don't want to see either.

Also RIP Bengals season.

Yet another shitty season for Bengals. Not surprising

Yeah I'm already bored of the Chiefs. We just saw 20 years of dominance from Brady and the Pats, I don't want to watch it again with a palette swap.

Rams/Bengals was a great Superbowl because it was 2 teams that hadn't come close to greatness in a while, and there was likeable people on both sides.


Mahomes making the AFC championship again would make me not want to watch.

I'd love a cat team SB. Everyone wins with that scenario.

>Deshaun Watson done for the season
>Joe Burrow done for the season
>Lamar Jackson has an ankle injury but appears to be okay

Mike Tomlin voodoo 2/3 so far this week. Watch out Lamar

Stoolers once again falling into a playoff spot just through sheer dumb luck. I hope the Browns squash them this week so I can see the Shittsburgh copium go up again.

 

[Drama Fan]

Another week of keeping the Bears at the bottom of the NFC North. Holy shit though, the Packers cannot stop racking up injuries; Lord help me if Aaron Jones is out for the season.

 

[CHARizard]

I just want all of the Redskins players and staff to sacrifice Riverboat Ron to a volcano at this point. Just open a big lava pit at Fedex field and perform some injun ritual.

 

[Lean In Ban]

Deep down I want to believe Staley and Telesco are gone by tomorrow but this is the fuckin Chargers AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Holy shit Johnston is a fucking bust. We could've had Addison or Flowers fuck me.

 

[Clanner Scum]

Frens, it's hard being a Panthers fan right now, but I am watching Jets/Bills. Holy fuck.

Honestly this season is a win regardless for the Redmanders - they’re still just happy that Dan Snyder is gone.

You guys are gonna have to deal with a few years of shit before new ownership can potentially turn it around. Snyder's sewers ran deep.

There's no way you can let them stay. A Josh McDaniels Raiders, the Falcons, and a shitty Broncos team beat the Packers. Somehow the Steelers also beat them and they can't beat a Browns with no QB

Fun fact for anybody whose team is going to be playing in So-Fi Stadium in the near future:
If a receiver for the home team there trips on his own feet in the end zone, it's a defensive pass interference penalty. Special exemption Goodell baked into the fine print of the rulebook.
Failing to remember that can lead to a coach and team forgetting how to convert 3rd downs in the second half and erecting an invisible wall that prevents any scoring from the red zone.

Oh they are putting in the cowboy rules for the Rams?

 

[Local Fed]

Joe Flacco is close to signing with the Browns and being put on their practice squad.

 

[Ensok]

Sure has been a nice week for the 49er's. Even though I should want the Chiefs to win tomorrow I just can't root for them, even though I'm not a fan of the Eagles either. Also if the Vikings lose tonight the Lions are in such a damn good spot.

 

[Iron Hamster]

Holy shit Johnston is a fucking bust.

I saw the highlight. That was a TD in stride. Fucking bobble hands

Joe Flacco is close to signing with the Browns and being put on their practice squad.

Harbaugh will have night sweats the rest of the season

Let me put it this way. The Seahawks have been averaging something like 56 penalty yards/game this season so far. Not great, our lines in particular have some discipline problems, but pretty middle of the road.
The zebras spotted LA 130 free yards today.

I feel like I used to read the words “Is Joe Flacco elite?” almost every day. No one would ever agree and everyone was pissed either way.

Damn, I had to double check and make sure you guys were playing the Rams and not the Cowboys/Eagles/Chiefs

 

[Wallace]

Denver has won four in a row. What is this timeline?
